It was nice to have warmer weather today. It hit 69 here.

Topped out at 71 at home. Low 70’s here in Cleveland as well.

Getting some good work done outside! Went and grabbed a high noon.

https://www.spc.noaa.gov/products/md/md0450.html Mesoscale Discussion 0450 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0448 PM CDT Mon Apr 14 2025 Areas affected...Blue Ridge into central/northern Virginia...western/central Maryland...Washington DC Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely Valid 142148Z - 142345Z Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent SUMMARY...A threat for damaging winds and large hail will persist into the Blue Ridge and eastward this evening. A watch is likely in the next hour. DISCUSSION...A cluster of storms, including a supercell with a history of large to very-large hail, continue to move quickly (45-50 kts) eastward late this afternoon. Dewpoints near and ahead of these storms are in the low 50s F. Models have continued to suggest some amount of upscale growth is expected with this activity. Even if this does not occur, these fast moving cells/linear segments will be capable of swaths of damaging winds and large hail. From the Blue Ridge eastward, dewpoints have slowly climbed into the low 50s F over the last couple of hours. Based off of current observations, dewpoints could increase another 1-2 F prior to storm arrival. There will be at least a narrow window where storms could remain surface based in the Blue Ridge vicinity. Farther east dewpoints and temperatures are lower. With some additional surface cooling expected, storms will have greater potential to be slightly elevated with eastward extent. However, forecast soundings show a dry sub-cloud layer that would support a continued risk of damaging downburst winds even with elevated storms. A watch will likely be needed in the next hour. ..Wendt/Gleason.. 04/14/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...AKQ...LWX...RNK...

Mesoscale Discussion 0449 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0430 PM CDT Mon Apr 14 2025 Areas affected...central and eastern Kentucky...far southern Ohio...and West Virginia Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 138... Valid 142130Z - 142300Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 138 continues. SUMMARY...Multiple supercells capable of large hail and damaging wind gusts will persist this evening. DISCUSSION...A cluster of supercells has developed across southern Ohio with multiple large hail reports received thus far. The strongest of these cells is a lead supercell approaching Charleston, WV as of 2130 UTC. This supercell has a history of 2 inch hail and latest MRMS data suggests 2+ inch hail (perhaps the size of baseballs) remains possible. The environment downstream of this supercell remains favorable with 750-1000 J/kg MLCAPE and 45 to 50 knots of shear and visible satellite showing an expansive agitated cumulus field. Therefore, expect this 2+ inch hail threat to persist for at least a few more hours across West Virginia. Thunderstorm activity has been limited south of the Ohio River thus far, and visible satellite imagery does not appear to indicate additional thunderstorms are imminent. However, the environment remains uncapped and as mid-level temperatures continue to cool, some thunderstorms will be possible along the front this evening. ..Bentley/Gleason.. 04/14/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Charleston WV WFO in for a rude time shortly

It's that time of year where I'm tempted to plant something but I know better. It was 29 one morning this week and 30 yesterday morning. These weekend 80s will have me ready for tomatoes to go in but I know as soon as I do we'll get a first week of May freeze.

Spectacular, except this is the first day I've noticed bugs.
